Simon Townshend

Event information

Simon Townshend will be playing at The Factory as part of his “Secret Weapon” UK tour. He and his band (featuring Tony Lowe, Phil Spalding and Greg Pringle) will be playing material from the new solo album ‘Looking Out Looking In’ as well as well known favourites from his extensive catalogue.

A familiar name with an original sound, Simon Townshend is straight from the lineage of one of British music’s most famous families. The son of England’s top big-band reed man and baby brother of Who legend Pete Townshend, Simon has been recording and performing since the age of nine, when he was brought in to add vocals to The Who classic Tommy.
